Parenting in Displacement Study on Thailand-Myanmar Border
Parenting in Displacement: Testing a wraparound model of support for migrant and displaced families from Myanmar
This Scope of Work relates to research activities conducted by the Institute for Population and Social Research (IPSR) at Mahidol University as part of the GPI study, “Parenting in Displacement: Testing a wraparound model of support for migrant and displaced families from Myanmar”
The study will test a wraparound approach to improving systems, population, and individual
caregiver and child level outcomes among migrant and displaced families on the Thai-Myanmar border. Study objectives are to:
1. Evaluate the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a population-level media campaign adapted from PLH to increase knowledge and skills around positive and playful parenting, reduce acceptance of violence against children, decrease harsh parenting, and promote caregiver and child wellbeing.
2. Evaluate the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of a trauma-informed adaptation of PLH for higher-need caregivers whose outcomes do not improve after delivery of the media campaign.
3. Design, implement, and evaluate strategies to strengthen formal and informal systems for service delivery and sustainability in a volatile displacement context.
